The STI-204064 and STI-204064H are MICR toner cartridges manufactured from Source Technologies with durability and legibility in mind. These Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) toner cartridges are designed especially for printing checks, WIC vouchers, and other negotiable processing documents. The secret ingredient contained in the toner is the iron oxide, which can be easily deciphered when travelling through a magnetic check clearing system or sorter. The sorting machines used by banks and other financial corporations rely on the toner to contain MICR properties for maximum productivity and security. Their machines process checks at high speeds, up to 20mph and one check with a low magnetic signal strength will halt these machines, resulting in lower processing speeds and potential fees to the check holder. It is crucial to have MICR toner cartridges that contain quality MICR toner components which can be found at Inkgrabber.com.

Once a check has been scanned by a MICR reader it is referred to as a “source document.” The MICR reader will extract vital information unique to each check from a MICR line located towards the bottom of the check. The payment is then processed electronically and digital information is collected into an electronic network (ACH Network), only accessible by the paying bank, an approved government official, or the account holder. The ACH or electronic network is automatically accessed by the check holder (or account holder) when viewing their personal bank statements online. This information is collected at the same time the check or source document is being creating for a more secure way to handle payments.

This also helps to eliminate fraud in two ways. By printing checks using the MICR toner cartridges, companies will eliminate the need for pre-printed check stock paper which is most commonly used for creating fraudulent checks. Pre-printed check stock is needed to print checks with standard laser toner cartridges. Additionally, without the need to stock on specialized paper, costs are significantly reduced. Secondly, as soon as the source document is created a real-time bidirectional confirmation is sent directly into the paying companies audit and reconciliation processes. Utilizing the ACH network, banks and financial corporations can easily detect whether the check is fraudulent as soon as they process the MICR printed document in a magnetic check clearing system. The MICR toner cartridges offer a dynamic way to optimize security of the check printing process.

The Genuine STI 204064 and STI 204064H cartridges are compatible with the Source Technologies ST-9630 printers and the Source Technologies ST-9650 printers. Combining your Source Technologies printer with Inkgrabber’s Genuine Source Technologies toner cartridges and the Genuine Source Technologies sti204064 MICR toner cartridges will create long-lasting source documents that have the durability and integrity to handle passing through several processing stages and / or machines. Moreover, the chemical composition will retain a high MICR signal strength, even after all the processing stages are completed.
